News / Politics / Activism Genuinely curious on liberal views of gun laws

Hello all. Looking for a debate on the other side of all of the gun laws / bans from a liberal point of view. How does it ACTUALLY make sense to liberals with the current laws. C21 was passed with hopes of lowering crime? How is that going? The OIC. How has the crime rate gone since? How are these “liberal experts” in power thinking this is actually going to make a difference? Canada could 100% ban every single firearm and gun crime would not go down 1 bit. I don’t really know any liberals to talk about it with I’d actually like to hear their side on it. I’m clearly not an expert on any of this but it just seems so ridiculous

It's the very vocal online minority for whom gun ownership is their one and only issue in life.

it becomes the main issue when engaging in it means you have to always keep abreast of new and upcoming changes or become a criminal

someone who plays tennis or collects funko pops can do so in blissful ignorance of politics because its unlikely to stick its dick into their hobbies and passions.
